Jesus, that's really gross. He's got so much money that I doubt he'll see any real consequences for this, which is a shame.

i'm reading the court filing now. so gross.

Agreed.

[dad]

the more you read the filing the worse it gets.

burn the whole operation to the ground. mcmahon will likely never see prison time for this, but if he does i hope someone defecates on his head while someone else is raping him. what a despicable person.

[Strat]

oh my god that is fucking....im sick to my stomach. Those text messages....geezes...vile ....

[AndySlash]

i read and re-read that whole filing over the last couple days. there are a couple things that stood out:

the more you read the filing the worse it gets.

it really is one of those things where you think to yourself that it can't possibly get worse and then it does. that poor woman, and who knows how many others experienced the same or, almost unfathomably, even worse.

the other thing that stood out was a rather innocuous line early on in there where vince admitted that he pretty much had nothing else outside of wwe and just how isolated and alone he was. anyone who pays attention to this stuff pretty much knows vince lived and breathed wwe and not much else, but to see it admitted like that - that he actually had that level of self awareness - was kind of surprising to me. and, imo, it informs his decision to bully his way back in to the company. the dude had all the money and success and whatever in the world, and he literally couldn't find anything else to do because he had been in that bubble of his for so long that i doubt he can function outside of it in any meaningful way.

this all is just so crazy and i don't think anyone could have seen it ending this way for him.

My dad was at an AEW (i think?) event a couple of weeks ago and texted me “look who i met!” I have no idea who it is but thought some of you might appreciate it

Looks like he dumped on your dads head

Legends. RIP Jay

Somewhere Darren Aranofsky is pounding out a screenplay…

For sure.

Vince should be put to death if that shit story is true.

Looking forward to the show tonight. Logan and Kevin should be great. Hoping Gunther wins the Rumble. He was awesome last year.

[AndySlash]

logan/owens was match of the night, imo. a rare case where the dq finish worked for me, with how it was done. mcafee calling out that 'now the ref has 20/20 vision?!' was nice. everything else was pretty good as a whole but probably not memorable. very cool to see the tna crossover with grace and for them to not sandbag it, and that was a good spot to debut cargill. happy for bayley, she deserved that spotlight. mens rumble didn't really have any lows but no real highs, either, and i think that affected the crowd, which otherwise had been up for most everything else to that point. punk needs to get in ring shape, he was struggling at the end.

hhh reeeally bungled the presser questions about vince. cody demonstrated how to answer those well with the lone qeustion he got about it.

[Anders]

Thought the women’s rumble match was very good. Maybe the best I’ve seen.

The UC match had some nice spots, but was too predictable.

The Owens match didn’t interest me, and I fast forwarded through most of it. Poor finish to the match.

Still watching the show, and the men’s rumble has been just ok so far. Cody recently entered, and there are about 40 minutes left of the show. Hope it picks up.

[Anders]

The second half of the match was a little better, but still a lesser Rumble match.

Right winner.

[Anders]

[numbers]

Thought the rumble was a horrible show, both rumble matches were poorly booked snoozefests and the two matches in between were both the shits as well.

[lennytheweedwhacker]

Oh hey Punk is seriously injured again

[Anders]

Not good.

[tommy]

That really sucks. Sounds like he'll be out for WrestleMania.

I enjoyed the Rumble. I thought the Woman's Rumble and the KO match were particularly good. The Men's rumble was once again hampered by an obvious winner, but it was still solid.
